Chapter 854: Crashing the Party

“Who?”

Lu Zhenzhen’s mouth was faster than her brain.

After she finished speaking, there was a few seconds of silence, “From Yaen Chi’s circle?”

With this question, the atmosphere became a bit awkward.

Originally, Nan Jiaojiao’s entrance was deliberately to disrupt the scene, and most people in the banquet hall were drawn to the doorway.

Even those who didn’t come over, upon hearing the commotion, were almost there.

Yi Qinghuan initially wanted to control the situation, but who would have thought Chu Yao made a call to Lu Zhenzhen, and even more unexpectedly, Shengyue Mansion turned out to be Gao Zhe’s property.

If she hadn’t heard it with her own ears, very few people knew about the mysterious background of Shengyue Mansion’s owner before, only knowing it was owned by a big shot that no one dared to scrutinize deeply.

Even though she wasn’t directly speaking with Yi Qinghuan, she was right in the center of the conversation, surrounded by frequent gazes.

No matter how calm Yi Qinghuan appeared on the surface, the smile on her face was hard to maintain.

“Miss Lu, I am…”

“Yi Qinghuan, right?

I’ve remembered you, and from now on, she’s not allowed to enter Shengyue Mansion again.”

At first, everyone thought Lu Zhenzhen was about to address Yi Qinghuan, but in her subsequent words, Yi Qinghuan didn’t even get a third-person mention.

After all, she’s the daughter of the Yi family.

The Yi family!

Even though their background isn’t as strong as Bo Yanching and others, in the upper social circles, they’re comfortably high-ranking, and picking anyone from the family would be someone others dare not offend.

With Lu Zhenzhen’s remark, it seemed like Yi Qinghuan was treated as a stray cat or dog.

Yi Qinghuan couldn’t bear such humiliation.

She stepped forward a few paces, looked at Chu Yao’s phone, and said, “Miss Lu, this is a misunderstanding.

Why wouldn’t I welcome Jiaojiao?

I heard Miss Chu and Jiaojiao talking over the phone, and I was the one who asked a service staff to fetch her outside.

I’m unsure where things went wrong, but it’s my fault, for issuing invitations to incoming guests.

Perhaps the staff were overly diligent, and I’m right here at Shengyue Mansion.

I will investigate and give Jiaojiao an explanation.”

“Chu Yao.”

Lu Zhenzhen said, “What a lousy banquet, with that detestable temper of yours, aren’t you surprised it hasn’t been ruined?”

Chu Yao laughed.

She always felt that Lu Zhenzhen was quite wicked.

Just like moments ago, she didn’t want to hear Yi Qinghuan’s excuses.

She could have interrupted at any time but insisted on waiting till Yi Qinghuan finished before ignoring her completely.

Moreover, in her speech, Yi Qinghuan repeatedly emphasized the importance of this banquet to her while trying to shift responsibility onto the staff.

But would Lu Zhenzhen buy it?

She bullied people arrogantly, backed by her family background, while being personally competent.

Within three years in the company, she climbed the ranks swiftly, surpassing even her father’s influence.

Everyone who spoke of Lu Zhenzhen referred to her not only as Miss Lu from the Lu Family or the daughter-in-law of the Gao Family but as someone who independently secured her own empire, earning her the title of the business world’s female tyrant.

Why would she give Yi Qinghuan face?

Chu Yao said, “Oh, don’t do that.

The chef’s cooking is very good, and tonight’s dishes were well arranged.

My Jiaobaoer just arrived, so we should let her eat her fill before disrupting.

Besides, does this scene today even need me to disrupt it?

You, Miss Lu, alone are more than enough.”

The phone was on speaker, and everyone around could hear it clearly.

Yi Qinghuan wanted to win favor, but offending Yi Qinghuan or Lu Zhenzhen, even a fool would instinctively choose.

So far, no one dared speak for Yi Qinghuan.

Lu Zhenzhen seemed to be persuaded, “Is Jiaobaoer next to you?

Hand the phone over, I want to speak a few words with her.”
